USA Today/Gallup. Obama Approval 64% Republicans 30% Democrats 42%
Fresh poll numbers to consider, courtesy of a USA TODAY/Gallup Poll released this hour:

-- 64% of those surveyed over the past three days (Friday-Sunday) said they approve of the job President Obama is doing vs. 30% who said they disapprove and 6% who said they have no opinion.

0% of those surveyed said they approve of the job Republicans in Congress are doing vs. 61% who said they disapprove and 8% who said they have no opinion. The only other time this year that the USA TODAY/Gallup Poll has asked about GOP members of Congress was the Feb. 20-22 survey. Then, 36% approved and 56% disapproved -- with 8% undecided.

-- 42% of those surveyed in the new poll said they approve of the job Democrats in Congress are doing vs. 51% who said they disapprove and 6% who said they have no opinion. In the Feb. 20-22 survey, the percentage who approved of the job Democrats were doing was 47%. Then, 46% disapproved and 7% were undecided.

The new survey included 1,007 adults. Interviews were done by telephone. Some calls went to landlines; some went to cellphones. The margin of error on each result: +/- 3 percentage points.

1. Just for kicks, I think they should do a poll asking respondents, "Do
Republicans suck?"

2. now I know there are 30% out there who are die-hard
republican supporters. That number seems to be consistant.
